Selva do Brazil 100ml

From the Portuguese ‘selva do Brasil’ or ‘forest of Brazil’, it evokes the Amazonian forest that offers luxuriance, warmth and moisture.

Our perfumers have reinvented the "selva" by melding a dry, inimitable green note that reveals its original, bold nature.

This Grand Cru unveils an original and unreal nature. A gentle shower falls from the sky to slowly graze the skin, in a moment of freshness and lightness. This perfume, a great blend from far-away, leaves a sublime and harmonious of scent.

Petitgrain from Paraguay, tonka bean from Brazil and Gaiac wood from Argentina come together to create a timbre that is both alive and racy, like the sap that flows in the heart of the "selva's" trees

The Amazonian Indians view the tonka bean, which is the fruit of Brazilian teak tree, as a talisman. The word tonka is taken from Tupi (the language spoken by the Tupis of French Guiana and Brazil), where it is used as the tree's name. The beans are harvested as they fall to the ground from August to September. When extracted they produce an absolute with a warm, gourmet aroma reminiscent of almonds.
